on the healthy elements of tho body that worms
exist, but upon tho diseased humors and slimy
deposits that breed these living monsters of
disease. No system of medicine, no vermifuges,
no antliclinlnitlcs, will free tha system from
worms like these Hitters.

Is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J.

speedily remove tho dark-colored viscid matter
with which the bowels are loaded, at the same
time stimulating the secretions of the liver, and
generally restoring tha healthy functions of the

Dr. Walkera California Vinegar

PhiDelta-Theta Convention.
Tbe Annual Convention and
quarto-centennial celebration
of tbe Pbi-Della-Theta frater
nity Was beld al Athens, Ohio,
Wednesday and Thursday, May
14lb and 15lh. This society is
a secret organization, existing
in the different colleges
throughout the United States,
tbe purpose of which, is the
improvement of the intellectu
al and social abilities of the
students, and the formation of
a stronger, and more confident
and animated spirit of friend
ship between student and stu
dent, which could not be form
ed otherwise. It is customary
to select some collegiate town
in which to bold the conven
tion, and Athens was chosen
the p'ace. Each Chapter is en
titled to one delegate, and only
one. The convention convened
on Wednesday morning, and
was in session two days trans
acting tbe business of tho fra
ternity, On Thursday evening
a literary entertainment was
given for the benefit of the
public, the lion. Hansford
Smith of Hamilton, Ohio, and
Mr. 0. 0. Perry, ol Indianapolis,
Ind., being the orators of the
evening. A crowd of about
seven hundred persons assem
bled at the Aethaneum intent
upon hearing the noble and
distinguished speakers. Mr.
Smith addressed the audience
in an able and eloquent man
ner on the 'Origin, Growth and
Progress of the Law." The
speaker viewed his subject
from a historical standpoint,
commencing with the law as it
existed in antiquated times,
and noting the different mcdes
and changes up to the present
time. The production was
noted lor its profundity of
thought embodied in it, and
the eloquent manner in which
it was delivered. Mr. Smith
submitted the floor to Mr. Per
ry. In an unaffected refined
and mellifluous manner, Mr.
Perry presented a ''History ol
the Fraternity." In December
1848, the first chapter of this
fraternity was founded at the
Miami University, Oxford, 0.
During tbe course of the last
twenty-five years 'mid the ex
cessive turmoil, tho unceasing
vituperations, the unremitting
contempt ol the sister Iraterni
ties, the Phi-Dclta-Theta has
increased from one chapter to
nearly forty .comprising a mem
bership oi nearly two thousand
and to-day she stands second
to no other fraternity in exis
tence. This fraternity is wield
ing a powerful and mighty in
fluence for good over the broad
domain reaching from New
York to California; from Mich
igan to Georgia, and it reflects
nothing but honor and credit
upon the person, who is mem
ber of the same.
After the literary entertain
ment was over, the members of
the fraternity, accompanied by
their ladies lor the evening, re
paired to the Warren House,
where a banquet had been pre
viously prepared. At eleven
o'clock they partook of a hear
ty repast, the tables being ar
tistically decorated with such
palatable viands, as would sat
isfy the most inextinguishable
desire of any person, after
which, the guests retired to the
parlor, where all seemed to en
joy themselves to the highest
degree imaginable, until they
becamo weary and then they
dispersed to their homes.
Take it all in all, the conven
tion was a grand success. Ev
ery true Phi-Delta left en
thused with higher and loftier
aspirations, with a more ardu
ous and zealons love for the
cau89, and with a fixed deter
mination to work for the pro
motion of the faternity, look
ing forward with high hopes to
the glorious and illustrious fu
ture which surely awaits it.

Why, It's as old as the moun
tains, I guess; we always
choose such weather as this for
drivin' snipe. The snipe are
fat now, and they drive better,
and they're better eatiu' too.
I tell you, a breakfast ol snipe,
broiled on the buflalo chips, is
not bad to take, is it, Dick?-'
Beaver Dick, who had j jst
arrived in camp, thus appealed,
growled an assent to the prop
osition contained iu Shep's
question; and the boys more
anxious than ever, pressed
Shep for an explanation.
"Maybe," said one ol them,
''maybe we can drive the snipe
to night and get a mpss for
breakfast: what have we got to
do Shep?"
Oh well," responded Shep,
it you're so plaguey ignorant
I'm afraid you wont do. How
somever, you can try. You
boys get a couple of them gunny-sacks
and candles, and we'll
go out and start em up."
Elated with the idea of hav
ing a mess of snipe for break
fast, the two young men, under
Shep's direction, each equip
ped with a gunny-sack and
candle, followed him upon the
plain, r-alf a mile from camp,
accompanied by some half doz
en members ol our party. The
spot was chosen because of its
proximity to a marsh which
was supposed to be filled with
snipe. In reality it was the
swarming place for mosquitces.
"Now," said Shep, stationing
the boys about ten feet apart,
"open your sacks, be sure and
keep the mouths wide open,
and after we leavo you, light
your candles and hold 'em
well into the sack, so that the
snipe can see, and the rest of
us will drive 'eai up. It may
take a little spell to get 'em
started, but if you wait pa
tiently they'll come."
With this assurance the snipe
drivers left them, and returned
immediately to camp.
"I've got a couple ot green
'una out there," said he with a
sly wink. "They'll wait 6ome
time for the snipe to come up, I
reckon."
The boys followed directions.
the sacks were held wide
open, the candles kept in place.
There they stood, the easy prey
of the remorseless mosquitos.
An hour passed away, and yet
from the ridge above the camp,
the light of the candles could
be seen across the plain. Shep
now stole quietly out of enmp,
and, making a long circuit,
came up behind the victims
and, raising a war-whoop, fired
his pistol in the air.
The boys dropped their sacks
and started on a two-forty pace
for camp, coming in amid the
laughter and shouts of their
companions. 'The Ascent of

3STOW.
Every merchant, manufacturer
or business man who has become
prominently rieh, has made his
fortune by judicious advertising.
No exception to this rule can be
cited! Stewart, the Prince of
Merchants, when a poor man, was
driven to advertising, as a last
resort, to get his stuck turned into
money so as to meet a note. Ar
guing from this that if it was
good for him in adversity, he
could make it still belter m pros
ferity, he became a persistent ad
verliser, and thus gained his co
lossal fortune.
Some merchants say it is not worth
while co advertise; for nn porsnn reads
advertisements; yet every merchant in
this county will read this advertise
ment, and if he is wise he will profit
by its suggestion, if he has anything to
offer worth advertising, ilovr much
more then will those read them who
are not so largely supplied with rewl
ing matter, are at leisure in the even
ing, and must depend un their paper for
their local news, the most important
item of which is where they can find
just what they want when they come to
town to make their purchases. Ifyotti
stock is so old, rusty, dusty nnd out of
style that it is worthless, or if it is run
down so that you have nothing left that
people would wint, it is not worth
while for you to advertise. But if it is
new, fresh and sparkling, up to the
times, and such as the people want,
don't hide them, but publish to the
world that you have them, and want
to sell thorn at a fair price.
An advertisement published for a sin
gle day does duty beyond that day,
and its effect continues in a greater
ratio than most men imagine. In the
end it will make a man's name a per
manent matter, a piece of real proper
ty built up in the minds of men until
it becomes more valuable tbaa any
corner lot in his locality.
If you lose a watch, a dog or a child,
or if you desire people not to trust
your wife, you rush to your local pa
per, knowing that every one will rend
the advertisement. But you will plod
along in business year after year, with
out calculating how much you ure los
ing by not advertising it Reporter.
If those persons who profess to be
lieve that newspaper advertisements
are not read by. the public wish to be
convinced of their error, just let them
pve publicity to somo matter they
would not ore to divulge to the world,
even in the most obsoure corner of u
country paper, and see what notoriety
they would soon attain. Advertiser i

Advertising is apt to give ns that
gentle jog oi conscience which tells us
that we want a new suit of clothes for

Madame to "nark this passage and lay

Why do people read advertisements?
To see who is enterprising and to learn
what is going on. To see if there is
anything new, or anything that they
want. To see if the season's styles
bave come in, and to find out who has
them. To know if any one is selling
off at reduced rates, or to watch the
chance of an auction. For amusement
To satisfy curiosty. Because they
have read all the stories, marriages,
births, deaths, locals and accidents.
Because they want to. Because they

Thb power of print is well known,
but not well understood. A printed
sentence has a "wonderful adv&atage
over one that is written or spoken.
This is one of the many reasons which
gives an importance to advertising. But
advertisers, even those of experience,
do not comprehend as well as they
might the capaoity to influence, to per
suade, to convince, which lies in print
ed matter. Spoken words require the
graces of elocution and the force of
eloquence, yet even then fade away in
to nothingness if not caught in their
flight and printed. But there is some
thing in the silent language, the quiet
assertion and the sense of permanence
about printed matter which gives it a
marvelous force and influence. Busi
ness men should never permit them
selves to loose sight of what may be
accomplished by a persevering use of
the printing presses. Learn to adver
tise, and then the "how, when and
